The specific compilation issue reported here has since been resolved.

Have you tried running the script from a directory with an existing git clone?
The remote name needs to be called "upstream", which is what the script uses
when setting up the repositories.

The script works for me.

Not sure if this is specific to old rdmd versions, but rdmd does not consult
any specific location for dmd.conf. It uses the output of dmd -v ("config"
line) to find the location of the compiler configuration, solely to consider it
as a rebuild dependency.
